Types of Immunizations Available
School Required Immunizations
Parents/guardians are urged to make school vaccinations a priority for school-aged children. Our walk-in immunization clinics get busier as school enrollment approaches, so getting children vaccinated early will save time. Vaccines protect children against infections that can be deadly or cause problems such as blindness and hearing loss.
